An extremely tasty pizza made from pre-made, slow cooker bbq pulled pork, pizza bases, caramelised onion relish, spring onion, cream cheese and mozzarella. This is such an amazing combination.
This recipe for BBQ Pulled Pork Pizza was born out of the age-old question - "what shall we do with the leftovers?". After making some BBQ Pulled Pork in the slow cooker and enjoying it in burgers on night one, we were left with a decent amount of leftovers which we decided to make pizza with.
These pizzas turned out so well! The combination of the pulled pork with the tangy onion relish and the decadent cream cheese is next level. Serve with fresh rocket for a lovely peppery green flavour.

Ingredient notes:
- Pulled Pork: I used some leftover Slow cooker BBQ pulled pork that I had made earlier in the week. You could also you store-bought pulled pork if you prefer.
- Pizza bases: This recipe would work with any type of pizza base including gluten free. If you want to make your own, give my Homemade Pizza Dough recipe a go. Or for something even quicker, you could also make these pizzas on my homemade Flatbreads.
- Caramelised onion relish: This Anathoth caramelised onion is absolutely delicious and super convenient to use. If you wanted to try making your own caramelised onions, check out this Pumpkin and Feta Tart which includes a step-by-step guide on making your own caramelised onions.

Distribute the pulled pork over the two bases. Dollop teaspoons of cream cheese on top of the pork. Scatter over the grated mozzarella and spring onion.

Recipe FAQs:
Yes of course. It will still taste amazing with a tomato sauce on the base. The caramelised onion just adds a lovely sweetness to the pizza which my family and I love.
Yes it can! In fact, that's my favourite thing to do with my pulled pork. We'll eat it one night either in burgers or bao buns, then I'l freeze the rest in snap lock bags. Simply allow the pork to defrost completely then use on top of your pizzas.
Storage:
Store any leftover pizza in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.

This was easy and very tasty. Nice to have a different flavour topping for pizza. I made these pizzas following your recipe but used leftover roast pork and I didn't have any rocket for the top, so left it off. Served with a BBQ Sauce swirl instead.Will definitely make again.

Sounds great!

These were delicious.
Would they be ok to freeze before cooking? Have an abundance of pulled pork and want to pre make some meals to freeze in preparation for maternity leave.
VJ cooks says
Yes that should be fine! Just wrap really well with clingfilm to prevent freezer burn.
